Extra Gum 'sticks' with you through everything. Case closed, roll credits. Of course we cannot stop there, but it is a good place to start. The advertisement starts off with how a soon to be couple (spoiler) met. As predicted, Sarah drops her books and Juan helps here. However, after this moment, the advertisement takes a new turn. Sarah offers the guy a piece of Extra Gum. Now, why is that important? This is important because Sarah uses that piece of gum as a gateway to get past the initial social awkwardness when you first meet someone. At this stage, it portrays Extra as a way to swiftly bypass the awkwardness and go directly for social interaction. (i.e. Talking) Moving swiftly forward, the advertisement skips over the development towards their date and plonks us directly at the end of their date. Again, Sarah offers Juan a piece of gum. But instead of taking the gum, Juan just kisses Sarah. Again, Extra is portrayed as a way to bypass that 'awkward' moment. It then shows Juan with the gum wrapper and shows him drawing on it.

This advertisement pronounces two very important themes: Extra is always there and Extra can be used as an 'awkwardness' bypass. The advertisement backs both of these claims with various scenes, analyzed above. These scenes follow a very linear path in the lives of a couple and how they develop and how Extra helps them develop. It is almost if Extra helped create their relationship and maintained it. This advertisement screams that Extra will always be there with you, through thick and thin, by practically following the lives of a couple. Finally, they end the advertisement very abruptly with 'Give Extra, Get Extra'. This could have been their direct theme to get you to buy Extra: Give someone gum and they will marry you. However, I believe that theme is a very pronounced theme that develops itself through the help of the not-so-pronounced themes mentioned
One of the rhetoric devices that is used in the commercial is ethos. Extra is a credible company which encourages viewers to buy their gum. In the commercial
It's a very simple message, and one that comes across very clearly due to the nature of the advertisement's simplicity. All in the matter of seconds, the advertisement leaves the reader with a clear sense of what the product does.
The way Yucel created the advertisement leaves a great deal of mystery, and intrigues the individual viewing the advertisement to watch the presentation. With a play on words Yucel indicates that the two images of Sarah Michelle Gellar are actually meant to be “identical” twins, as well as possible criminals by stating “two crimes”. Also, in the advertisement the two images of Sarah Michelle Gellar are merging together giving the impression that at least one of the sisters, as indicated in the title, impersonates the other. In fact, one of the mysteries of the advertisement is the letter “N” in the title, Ringer. The individual letter has a separate text effect from the rest of the word, causing part of the letter to separate itself, subtly indicating a metaphor of the television show. Each part of the separated letter “N” representing each one of the sisters, one part of the letter is a single line, which could also be an indication that one sister takes over, impersonating her
positive and healthful image. This is where beautiful men and women would be seen socializing
More advertisements than content fill most magazine’s editions. Advertisements may seem like innocent attempts from companies to get people to buy their products; however corporations spend billions of dollars in researching the best way to advertise their product. Dos Equis is one such company. Dos Equis for example, has a current and popular advertisement series which portrays like three friends having a night out on the town. However, as we dive deeper and deconstruct this advertisement we find that this subversive advertisement has some insensitive and subliminal messaging included within its ploy to get the viewer to purchase its product.
The Lunchables ad represents Lunchables as “bursting with fun” and implies that children will be happy and enjoy school if they have a Lunchables. Lunchables placed this ad in a magazine to target moms and children to get them to buy their product. They are trying to convey, like most advertisements do according to Croteau and Hoynes (2014), that “happiness and satisfaction can be purchased” (p. 179) if mothers buy their children Lunchables. Lunchables (Lunchables Parents) advertise as being “packed with what kids love” and “giving your kids what they want”. They include a hand tray with a main entrée, drink, and dessert. The brand delivers on the idea of fun and interactivity of building your own meal and “mixing up” your lunch. Lunchables
Since I was a little girl, my mother always made it clear that a husband was unobtainable if a woman could not properly tend to his needs. I learned how to cook, how to clean, how to do laundry, and I even learned how to take care of my younger siblings all because, according to my mother, these responsibilities were a woman’s duty; it was her job. For centuries, this has been the mindset of every woman, which has been passed down from generation to generation. A stereotype that has influenced a culture and defined a human being. In this 1930’s Kellogg’s PEP Cereal advertisement we witness yet another stereotype defining women into this sexist housewife persona. Through the use of clothing and appearance, text and audience the ad conveys a
The elderly woman that ran a street cart was giving extra to her customers. And even the dog that he repeatedly fed followed him home and helped him with gardening. Another form of repetition in this commercial was when the narrator of the commercial repeatedly said, “He won’t…” (Narrator). Meaning nothing good would come
The highlighted yellow stating ‘Only $29’ displays the importance of that particular line which is highlighted in a vibrant colour to entice the human eye. The green contrast used in the background symbolises a battlefield ground and makes the text and picture stand out. Furthermore, on the left hand side of the advertisement, the emblem used corresponds with the ‘welcome to Fabulous Las Vega’s’ sign. Similarly, the text itself is similar to the text used in the Vegas emblem. This indicates that the advertisement is using the famous welcome sign to make this commercial popular.
In the beginning of the advertisement, you start hearing a ringing like you would when you call someone. The phone is answered and the operator on one end asks the address of the emergency. The woman/ caller on the other end replies the address back to the operator, and she says that she would like to "order a pizza". The operator is thoroughly confused as to why the woman would order a pizza through emergency services. The two go back and forth for 40 seconds of the one-minute commercial, as the operator has to catch on the fact that the woman is actually in distress. Finally, as the emergency service operator becomes aware that the woman needs help he tries to get her to stay on the line as he sends out a police officer to her, she kindly declines and promptly hangs up the telephone call, thanking the operator for sending aid. All while this unique conversation takes place you as a viewer are witnessing flashing of images, of shots throughout a contemporary modern style home that is disheveled in
This advertisement makes Diet Coke popular because it focuses on why the consumers drink the product; it 's refreshing and does not cause weight gain. This is proved in the advertisement because the women portrayed are happy and having a good time while sharing a Diet Coke, which leads the consumers to believe that they should buy a Diet Coke as well. This association increases sales and helps improve the overall market
What is your greatest motivation when buying a product? For many years’ manufacturers have been using advertisement for marketing and selling their products. Personally, I do not always buy a product because I need it; but because the advertisement makes it look so appealing. As I was browsing through the January 2013, Family Circle Magazine; I came across a carmex advertisement. I am familiar with the product; however, I was not aware that they were also making body creams and lotions. There were many elements included in the advertisement that caught my attention. For example, the bright yellow color, the name of the product, and the picture of a beautiful lady with her flawless skin glowing. The main idea of advertisements is for customers to see what the manufactures want them to see.

Today’s subliminal messaging is now as obvious as flashing words on a screen. One must observe closely to what the true hidden meaning of the advertisement is. Many times people can not find anything subliminal about an advertisement at all. As the old saying says, “Sex sells,” it really does sell. Most modern day marketing is focusing on sex.
